UK ISP Adult Filters Block Sex Education Websites Allows Access To Porn

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday December 18, 2013 @08:01PM from the surprise-to-no-one dept.

toshikodo writes "The BBC is reporting that Internet content filters being rolled out by major ISPs in the UK are failing to allow access to acceptable content, such as sex education and sexual abuse advise sites, while also still allowing access to porn. According to the article, 'TalkTalk's filter is endorsed by Mr Cameron but it failed to block 7% of the 68 pornographic websites tested by Newsnight.' The ISPs claim that it is impossible for their filters to be 100% accurate, and that they are working with their users to improve quality. I wonder how long it will be before one of these filters blocks access to the Conservative Party's website, and what will Cameron do then?"

Love is a beautiful thing. Porn however is not love. The people don't love each other (exception is home made amateur porn) and it's not biological either (no offspring produced when the man blows his "money shot" in the woman's face)
Porn is not natural. It ruins the beauty of love and sex by desensitizing people to it. The less children exposed to this smut the better for society.
